10:30 is a late start, but we discussed the trail for the next 190 km. We won’t come through towns and decided to resupply for seven days. With full and heavy backpacks we climbed about 1.000 m and declined 800 on our 25 km day. It was warmer today than any day lately and I feel that this has a big impact on our both moods (for the better). I even took a few pics, so don’t forget to check instagram and fb.
Days 25 – 28
I summarize those days in one post. Short: I was miserable and didn’t like much of it. It was cold, it was foggy at least or it rained. I was all wet. I had nightmares, therefore no good sleep. We got lost and had to walk quite a detour. I had to pitch my tent on a hill, that’s no fun. On our day off to resupply I lost my bank-card. Luckily someone found it and turned it in. Yeah! That brings me to the rest of the goid news for those days: we met really nice people in Girifalco at the Royal Bar. Maybe J. wants to write more about them – I don’t right now. Today was long but good for me. Finally some giid weather and my mood lightened up. I have not taken any pics lately but Calabria is beautiful for sure (in spring). I can provide you with stats, though.
Day 27 was an off-day in Catanzaro.
Day 24
J. and I are hiking together again. We started late, around 11 a.m. and walked on trail towards Serra San Bruno. Weather was fine, snow-level is at around 1200 m. We found a place to pitch camp around 3 km before town, that gives us a chance for a nice breakfast there. It feels good to sleep in my tent again. 🙂 Good night.
